The legendary warrior novel Chapter 1430

As the power of the seven runes reached their limits, the casting power at the Sage Level finally emerged from within Ricky. The runes shone brightly with a golden light, proclaiming that they had evolved into holy runes.

When the drum sounded for the eighth time, the audience gaped at Ricky with open mouths just as they had when they witnessed Kamari's real strength a moment ago.

The air was filled with an eerie silence.

As realization sunk in, a shaky voice broke the oppressive silence. "Are my eyes deceiving me? Ricky... Is Ricky a casting master of Sage Level?"

"It is as plain as day! He released the holy runes, same as Kamari."

It took Kolton a while to recover from his shock as well. He couldn't help but clap his hands like a kid, exclaiming with a laugh, "Nice work, boy!"

The other saints and casting masters of Sage Level stood up unconsciously and stared at Ricky, their eyes almost popping out in disbelief.

"Incredible!" they remarked in unison. There was no other word to describe Ricky at that moment.

Simultaneously, all of them came to the same conclusion—they would go to any lengths to invite Ricky to join their forces.

Even though they equally admired Kamari's talent, he was from the Helian Clan, and they knew that he would never betray his clan for any price. However, Ricky was different. Although he was already a core disciple of the Misty South Palace, Ricky didn't belong to any casting force yet.

Meanwhile, the casting masters of the Helian Clan, including the three elders, were in no mood for celebration. Their eyes were narrowed at Ricky. The proud expression on their faces was now replaced by gloomy stares. This was no good news for them. This man was now a threat to the Helian Clan.

'No way! He has become a casting master of Sage Level?!'

Kamari's heart roared, his face twisting as he looked at the holy runes on Ricky's body.

"Impossible," he muttered to himself. He couldn't believe his own eyes.

He did not want to believe that there was another person who was also less than a hundred years old in the Misty South besides him having become a casting master of Sage Level. To make things worse, this fledgling was not even from the Short Human tribe.

There was no doubt that Kamari was an incredible casting genius, but on top of being naturally talented, he reaped the benefits of being in Helian Clan. For many years, Kamari had cultivated on the Casting Ladder and acquired the original energy of casting from the nine hundred and ninety ninth stair.

With all those resources and experience in his pocket, he didn't think that anyone could surpass him in the casting field.

And Kamari, like most other geniuses who had never failed in life, had a terrible weakness. He was used to looking down upon others and was convinced that there was no one who could outmatch him.

Failure was never a part of his lessons.

At that very moment, he was tasting it for the first time in his life. Even though he was strong-minded, he still took it badly.

What Kamari didn't know was the truth that Ricky too had cultivated on the nine hundred and ninety ninth stair of the Casting Ladder and had gotten a hold of the original energy of casting.

Watching from the cloud, Elder Calhoun sensed Kamari's instability. In a serious, but gentle voice, he said to the young man through telepathy, "Kamari, you have not lost yet.

You are the best casting genius of our clan. But even if you fail today, be strong willed and move forward."

Elder Calhoun's words brought much relief to Kamari. "Yes, you are right. I haven't failed yet. The drum sounded eight times for me and fifty one circles appeared," Kamari murmured to himself.

He then turned to look at the yellow drum.

The others' eyes followed suit.

As they got over their shock, the crowd slowly came to a collective conclusion that there was no way Ricky could defeat Kamari even though he got the drum sounding eight times.

After all, Kamari got fifty-one circles to light up.

All eyes were on the drum. Thirty three circles glowed.

The light dimmed as it reached the thirty-third.

Discussions erupted among the crowd. "It's about to stop!"
